Mongolian national instrument Horse Fiddle

This is sound of Mongolian national instrument Horse Fiddle. This instrument has very ancient history and Mongolians believe that every Mongolian family has to have a Horse Fiddle at home. This instrument has only 2 strings and made from horse tail. It is very hard to play and you need many years of practice to master it.

so beautiful, I adore this music, im sorry to see that there are negative comments on this video as in many other mongol videos. Some people need to learn the splendors of this mongol civilization and to be more tolerant of other people's ways. And if they dont like it then let them just not watch the video instead of posting negativly and ruining it for those who love this music!

that's why it's easier to learn 'your' instruments. They need to learn how to make different sounds with only two strings...ya never heard of violin I guess...less strings, harder to learn (like the hardest ocarina is the one with 2-4 holes not the one with 6-8)

Mongolian music so different, from any other I have heard...

cannot compare, but I simple like it...

The Title of that song is called "Uulen Bor", or "Cloud Brown" in English.
